Biography

Born in 1987 in Tunis [TN]. Lives and works in Tunis [TN]. Belhassen Chtioui is a graphic designer. He completed his studies at the UAD : The University of Art and Design [TN] . Once reserved for the world of advertising, the use of computer technology, particularly image proces- sing software, is a practice which is becoming increasingly popularized in Contemporary Art. Belhassen uses these tools in his series of «prints» or digital prints. Each image is worked in monochrome; the sub- ject is placed in the center of the image or completely staggered, partially out of scope. A special atmos- phere emerges from his work, sometimes his subjects seem to tear away from the depth and float, and sometimes they seem to want to escape the frame.
